<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2">1. when you set the path property of the decision icon it's not {path} just path</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2">2. you also need to set the branch property to calculate</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2">The pause and erase settings will also make a difference to what you actually see on screen but I'm sure you're aware of that.</font></div>

</font><br>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>
<p><font face="Verdana" size="2">I'm trying to branch using a Decision icon's path property, and I'm not sure how to go about it. Can the path property take an expression or variable? I'm using a variable determined in a script icon for the path:</font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2">if (score < 90) {</font> <br>
<font face="Courier New" size="2"> path = 1;</font> <br>
<font face="Courier New" size="2">} else {</font> <br>
<font face="Courier New" size="2"> path = 2;</font> <br>
<font face="Courier New" size="2">}</font> </p>
<p><font face="Verdana" size="2">and entering {path} for the path property of the Decision icon, but I seem to go down the first branch no matter what path equals. What is the correct way to do this?</font></p>
